"Miss Earline" to the rescue

If a teenager gets caught using drugs or committing a crime in Southeast Alaska, there’s a good chance they’ll get sent to the Johnson Youth Center in Juneau. But some people go to the detention and treatment center voluntarily. In fact, one volunteer is about 70 years older than the kids she spends time with. To them she is known simply as “Miss Earline.”
